http://www.xmastimeapp.com An app that lets parents call their children posing as Santa Claus.

I posted it on Show HN the other day[0] but didn't get any comments yet. I am not complaining though, considering the scope of this. I would be very happy if someone would give us their thoughts though.

No doubt that I am most proud of (cannot say I invented it, more correct would be that I stumbled upon) the agile and Maker centric TimeBlock method http://timeblock.com We started using the method Jan 5'th 2015 and now we have a SaaS app with paying earli bird users and more users of the method not using the app. Two of the companies using the method (besides us), attribute their growth directly to TimeBlock.

Increase the font size for mobile (s4) of the "sleep better..." text block at the top...it's about a third the size of the other text

I decided to dedicate my free /side-project time to my own biggest itch: how can we improve the way we learn and remember? In particular, I think the way we teach & learn software development could be greatly improved.

As a first step, I created http://www.codingbrain.com. It's a knowledge management app that integrates with your markdown notes.

I too posted on HN without much feedback https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10464525

However, I think codingbrain tries to do too many things at once and I have plenty of sub-ideas which I plan to implement in 2016

Actually "finished" a project for once.

I made https://stitchpics.net which is a website that converts an image into a cross-stitch pattern entirely client side (with some help from my mother-in-law for the idea)

Made it to try out Polymer and at this point I'd say that I'm not all that happy with Polymer's performance, but it is nice to work with components on the web.

The code is available at https://github.com/Klathmon/StitchPics

I taught myself Haskell and built a tool that searches and download movie subtitles. [1]

Taught myself angular.js and built Ceasium [2]. A tool for freelance programmers that can do minimal project/time management. It also has notifiers for watching HN and Reddit threads. If you run a bundled python script, it can even monitor multiple Reddit inboxes.

It actually helped me find work.
